VINTAGE TULIP VASE...

Yesterday was my Art of Punch Art Class.  The first card is basically a color update of the Simple Tulip Vase I posted in April.  It was requested for the class, so I just did a little update on it.  Since I used the new Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder that will be available beginning July 1, I thought you might like a sneak peek!  Over the next couple of days, I will post the other two cards we made at the class.  Enjoy!

For the tulips, I used the versatile Two-Step Bird Punch.  Each flower uses 2 or 3 of the bird wings.  For the stems, I used the Wide Oval to cut "on-the-edge" and "above and around" as in other punch tutorials posted here.  The vase is the Ornament Punch with the bottom snipped off.  Enjoy!
